Orion Energy Systems, Inc. Announces 1-For-10 Reverse Stock Split
MANITOWOC, Wis., Aug. 19, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orion Energy Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: OESX) (Orion Lighting), a provider of energy-efficient LED lighting, electric vehicle charging station and maintenance service solutions, announced today that its Board of Directors and shareholders approved a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of the Company's common stock, no par value per share, which will be effective at 12:01 a.m., Central Time, on August 22, 2025 (the 'Reverse Stock Split'). Orion's common stock will continue to be traded on The Nasdaq Capital Market on a split-adjusted basis beginning on August 22, 2025, under the Company's existing trading symbol 'OESX.' The Reverse Stock Split is intended to increase the bid price of the Company's common stock so that Orion can regain compliance with the minimum bid price requirement of $1.00 per share for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market. The new CUSIP number following the Reverse Stock Split will be 686275 207. The Company filed an Amendment to its Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions on August 19, 2025 to effect the Reverse Stock Split. The Reverse Stock Split will affect all shareholders uniformly and will not alter any shareholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in that shareholder owning a fractional share as described in more detail below. The Reverse Stock Split will reduce the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding from approximately 35.2 million to approximately 3.5 million. The total number of authorized shares of common stock will also be reduced proportionally from 200,000,000 to 20,000,000. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. In lieu, thereof, each shareholder who would be entitled to receive a fractional share will be entitled to receive a cash payment equal to the product of the closing price on the day immediately prior to effectiveness of the Reverse Stock Split and the amount of the fractional share. The Reverse Stock Split will also result in proportional adjustments being made to all outstanding options, restricted stock, performance shares, or similar securities entitling their holders to receive or purchase shares of our common stock. Equinity Trust Company, LLC ('EQ'), the Company's transfer agent, will act as the exchange agent for the Reverse Stock Split. EQ will provide instructions to any shareholders with physical stock certificates regarding the process for exchanging their certificates for split-adjusted shares into 'book-entry form.' Shares held by shareholders in 'street name' will have their accounts automatically credited by their brokerage form, bank or other nominee, as will any shareholders who held their shares in book-entry form at EQ.

Opendoor stock climbs as CEO search continues
Opendoor Technologies (OPEN) stock rallied 6% at the market open before paring gains on Tuesday morning as the company continues its executive search following CEO Carrie Wheeler's departure. The real estate iBuyer meme stock has been on a tear since Wheeler announced her resignation on Friday, gaining more than 19% on Monday following the news and pushing the company's six-month gain to more than 135%. "When the Board of Directors asked me to take on this role at the end of 2022 ... my mandate was clear: stabilize the company and do what was necessary to survive," Wheeler said in the tweet announcing her departure, effective immediately. "The foundation is stronger, the vision is sharper, and the business is ready for what comes next." Opendoor announced on Friday that Shrisha Radhakrishna, the company's current chief technology and product officer, will serve as president and "interim leader of Opendoor" as the iBuyer platform kicks off its executive search. In the weeks leading up to her resignation, Wheeler faced immense pressure from investors who argued she was the wrong leader to shepherd Opendoor through its transition from a money-burning business to a stable and EBITDA-positive company. The calls were largely led by activist investor Eric Jackson, who kicked off the initial bull rally in Opendoor with an X thread laying out an $82 price target on a penny stock that was at the time worth less than $1. "Carrie Wheeler is not the leader to take $OPEN to $82 and beyond," Jackson posted a week before Wheeler's resignation. "The board needs to act now. I've never been more convinced about a CEO needing to step aside now." Two days before Wheeler's resignation, Opendoor co-founder Keith Rabois posted on X, "Not a single founder nor executive who built Opendoor to an IPO or billions of free cash flow or $18 B of market cap supports Carrie as CEO nor [board member Pueo Keffer]." The change in leadership comes after a tumultuous run for the company, which has seen its price quickly climb from under $1 to more than $4 as of Tuesday morning as the retail investor community bought into hype around a potential turnaround. Mentions of Opendoor on the meme stock-centric subreddit r/WallStreetBets exploded in the wake of Jackson's original Twitter thread. "Stocks like Opendoor Technologies ... have seen huge advances on high volume because of their ability to capture the public's imagination," Interactive Brokers chief strategist Steve Sosnick said. "And a feature of the current market environment is that once the public gets involved in a high volatility, high volume situation, these situations can persist with a life of their own." Read more: Are 'we buy houses' offers a rip-off? How to know if you're getting scammed. Wall Street may not have bought in as strongly. An August research note from UBS, published before Wheeler tendered her resignation, assigned a price target of $1.60, less than half of where the stock was trading Tuesday morning. UBS no longer sees Opendoor returning to year-over-year revenue growth in 2026 or breaking even on EBITDA for the year, as the bank's analysts "expect home price depreciation to remain the key macro headwind to OPEN's model at least through 1Q26," they wrote in the note. Though the company has announced recent new offerings like an agent-led distribution model, "we wait for more evidence that the combined offerings can scale in a way that OPEN returns to industry level growth," the UBS analysts wrote. The short float for the stock was roughly 23% as of Tuesday morning. Jake Conley is a breaking news reporter covering US equities for Yahoo Finance.
